just when i'd given up hope...

i might have some film work coming down the line.

got a call yesterday from a director who's heading back to town to make a film.

he originally wanted to shoot last fall, but funding fell through. he bumped the schedule to the spring, but again (you guessed it) found funding problems. - this is just part of the fun of filmmaking, so i was about to write the entire thing off.

but he called yesterday with the new plan - make a short to help raise money for the feature.

my part in all this will be as the first a.d.,which i've never attempted before, so i'm really excited. and when i talked to the director yesterday, we talked about funding and i jumped in with some ideas and thought of a couple people i could write to (i suppose i could have thought of these people before yesterday, but for some reason i didn't see myself as having any connections whatsoever). so, along with getting my first a.d. feet wet, i might also get a producing credit.

exciting. especially if the film(s) actually gets made.
